IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

To enable downsizing of an apparatus and to enable adjustment of an obtained stereoscopic effect.SOLUTION: An image processing apparatus comprises: an image generating unit that acquires image information which can constitute a left-eye viewpoint image and image information which can constitute a right-eye viewpoint image to generate the left-eye viewpoint image and the right-eye viewpoint image; a detection unit that detects a pair of a partial image of the left-eye viewpoint image and a partial image of the right-eye viewpoint image; an image adjustment processing unit that performs image adjustment processing for adjusting a stereoscopic effect for one or both of the partial image of the left-eye viewpoint image and the partial image of the right-eye viewpoint image in one pair or each of a plurality of pairs; and a display unit that displays the left-eye viewpoint image or the left-eye viewpoint image after the image adjustment processing to be able to be observed by a left eye, and that displays the right-eye viewpoint image or the right-eye viewpoint image after the image adjustment processing to be able to be observed by a right eye.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】装置の小型化を可能にすると共に、得られる立体感を調整可能にする。【解決手段】画像処理装置は、左目視点画像を構成可能な画像情報と右目視点画像を構成可能な画像情報を取得して、左目視点画像と右目視点画像を生成する画像生成部と、類似する、左目視点画像の部分画像と右目視点画像の部分画像、のペアを検出する検出部と、１つのペア又は複数のペアの各々における、左目視点画像の部分画像と右目視点画像の部分画像の一方又は両方に対して、立体感を調整するための画像調整処理を行う画像調整処理部と、左目視点画像又は画像調整処理後の左目視点画像を左目で観察可能に表示すると共に、右目視点画像又は画像調整処理後の右目視点画像を右目で観察可能に表示する表示部と、を備える。【選択図】図１
